  • Rooted in History

    The original homestead of Nantes-Vue dates back to the early 1800s, likely built between 1824 and 1830 during the ownership of Pieter Jacobus de Villiers. The farm was first awarded to Jan Coleman in 1692 and was one of the earliest Paarl farms allocated to the French Huguenots. Today, the current house and stand are all that remain of the original 20-acre estate.

  • What a lovely, tranquil, and peaceful place to stay!

    I frequently choose this accommodation when traveling for work, as it truly feels like a home away from home. Shani is fantastic, and there are shops conveniently close by. The rooms are spacious and spotless, plus I appreciate the room service and the freshly brewed coffee. And I can’t forget to mention the stunning views during my 15-minute drive to the office!

Our Rich History

Nantes-Vue’s homestead is the original farmhouse of one of Paarl’s earliest Huguenot farms, granted to Jan Coleman in 1692. The current house, built between 1824 and 1830, remains a cherished piece of the original 20-acre estate.
